In Pazardzhik, a “Week of Open Doors” is organized by the medical facility “SBALPFZ – Dr. N. Penchev – Pazardzhik” during the period September 14–18. As part of the campaign, every day from 09:00 to 12:00 free screening examinations for tuberculosis will be conducted.
The doctors who will perform the examinations are Dr. K. Sotirova, manager of the facility, and Dr. R. Avramov.
The initiative is implemented in connection with the execution of the National Program for Tuberculosis Prevention and Control in the Republic of Bulgaria for the period 2026–2030. During the campaign, anyone interested will be able to undergo screening for the risk of tuberculosis, which includes filling out a questionnaire and consultations with specialists. If an elevated risk is detected, additional examinations and tests will be undertaken.
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that most often affects the lungs and is transmitted through airborne droplets. Early detection is essential for successful treatment and for limiting the spread of the infection. Prevention and screening of people at high risk are an important part of disease control.
